    It’s true

      Would be nice if the article told you what to watch for to know which gums to avoid.

        Although they hypothesised that petroleum/synthetic gum would have more, the article says the conclusion: the amount of mucroplastics were actually the same for both organic and synthetic gums. (Though It doesn’t state clearly if it’s low trace amounts from the environment, or just a big ol’ stick of plastic and nothing else).

        So if it bothers you, you should avoid all gums. But also, literally ALL our food has plastics in it now. All of it. Even fresh vegetables.

          Yeah, reading other articles about the study, it sounds like this is more a product of manufacturing and packaging than an actual ingredient

        Hum… The article says it: avoid every one.

        Or not, because there is still not enough evidence to conclude it’s a problem. It’s just “very likely”, not "known’.
